Auto Bomb
Auto Bomb is a modern automatic variety developed by crossing Ruderalis with Bomb genetics to produce a strain that prioritizes speed and ease of cultivation. This autoflowering hybrid completes its flowering cycle in 65 days, making it an accessible option for growers operating in both indoor and outdoor environments. While the strain provides reliable performance, it is characterized by a low yield, serving as a functional cornerstone for those seeking efficiency in their garden.
The complex organoleptic profile of Auto Bomb is defined by a deep range of aromatic compounds, led by dominant myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene. Secondary and tertiary nuances are provided by a diverse array of pinene, terpinolene, linalool, beta-pinene, humulene, nerolidol, ocimene, bisabolol, guaiol, camphene, caryophyllene-oxide, and p-cymene. This intricate terpene arrangement results in a multi-layered sensory experience that balances earthy and spicy notes with lighter citrus and botanical undertones.
As a THC-dominant cultivar, Auto Bomb is engineered to induce states of relaxation, happiness, and an uplifted mood. These effects make it a consistent choice for individuals utilizing the plant to manage stress, alleviate pain, or facilitate sleep. The genetic impact of the variety is further evidenced by its status as a parent to notable offspring, including Cosmic Bomb Auto and THC Bomb Auto, which continue to carry forward its established traits.

Research notes below describe isolated terpene mechanisms and early findings. They do not guarantee effects from this strain and are not medical advice.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.

●●○○
Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy
anytimeuplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
Genetic Profile
Autoflower
Photoperiod-independent. Flowers based on age, not light cycle. Compact and fast.
THC-Dominant
